It is a truth perhaps not universally acknowledged so much as inevitable that successful IP breeds imitators. “Bridgerton” is the latest in a line of period dramas with strong female focal characters, one that contains examples as different as “The Gilded Age” is to “Dickinson.” The new USA reality series “The Courtship” aims to tap into this fascination with romantic ages past, which means the show must balance the well-known rhythms of a “Bachelorette”-type dating series — challenges for dates, stolen kisses, the occasional plunge into a lake, and an elimination set piece — while embodying the hallmark looks and pleasures of its Regency-era “setting.”
Dropping the pretense of fiction makes “The Courtship” an intriguing interpretation of what the naked (or at least semi-nude) pleasures of costume dramas actually are: namely, the costumes, the countryside, pretty horses, and prettier people. But it’s also an interesting test of what’s required...

Who doesn’t love a good, old-fashioned love story?
The Courtship is the latest dating show with a twist. This twist being that instead of conventional dating, we’ve traveled back in time to the Regency Era, where we watch 16 men compete for the affections of the stunning Nicole Remy.
The show is a lot of fun, and Nicole is the perfect lead, with her effervescent personality and megawatt smile. I got a chance to talk to Nicole and had an absolute blast laughing with her and hearing all about her amazing journey to find love.
Hi Nicole.
Hi Whitney. How's it going?
It's going great. How are you?
Good, thank you. Thanks for having me.
Yeah, of course. I'm really excited to talk to you. I have been really enjoying The Courtship so far.
Awesome. I love to hear that.
Can you tell us a little bit about how...

Modern dating is tough. With endless swiping, unanswered DMs and app fatigue, everyone can relate to the trials and tribulations of finding your match in 2022. So, why not go back to the 1800’s?
NBC’s new reality dating show, “The Courtship,” aims to bring chivalry back to love, while traveling to the Regency era. The social experiment brings 20-something suitors into the romantic storybook times of Jane Austen, essentially turning frat bros into knights in shining armor with the hope of winning over the heart of the series’ heroine, Nicole Remy, a real-life single who was plucked out of a nationwide casting call and sent across the pond to star in a TV show.
While “The Bachelorette” hands out roses, “The Courtship” determines who goes home with a final dance. Rather than limos, there are carriages. And instead of filming at a venue like the Bachelor Mansion or a tropical island with bikini-clad hopefuls,...
